Awesome Sonic ones. I'm running out of ideas, because people keep beating me to them! I got some up my robe sleeve, though :D

Can I remind everyone who designs bands to send me the patterns? Thanks!

Yes, if the patterns you make aren't in the sth / pat formats. :)

Love these! I was just thinking that Sonic would be a good one, there seems to be lots of love for Mario on the forum, and not so much for Sonic (as a Sega girl, I never really played Mario much, but Sonic... that's a different story!)

Had an attempt at a pattern, something easy, but pretty recognisable I hope.

...And apparently I can't work out how to upload an image. Or convert to pdf. I'm pretty rubbish all round :grin:

I've been visiting the board for months now, and just decided to join because I've been sitting on the idea of doing a sampler, and I was so inspired by the bands that were posted here that I had to try my hand at making some patterns.
Sooo I know folks were looking for other than Mario and Zelda, but Yoshi's Island is one of my top three favorite games, and after trying unsuccessfully to make a Donkey Kong Country one, I present my first two hand generated patterns. My own sampler that I eventually make will be mostly Mario. That said, I am happy to contribute to the bands even if I'm the only one who uses them. Y'all are very inspiring..
Welcome to the forum! And don't be so hard on yourself. Your bands are quite nice. :) :nod

I don't think anybody has done a Mega Man band yet, right? With all the great NES bands in here, I figured we couldn't leave out Mega Man. :)

Why, thank you. :blush:


A few more bands I was working on but couldn't quite get to turn out:

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles arcade game
Donkey Kong Country
Paperboy
Pitfall

If anyone were to come up with any of those, that'd be RAD! :yahoo:

OH BOY and I LOVE the Mario Paint band-- every time I see that baby face sprite, I hear the sound it makes in my head... that's how much I played that game.
